Catherine Nixon

Meet Cathy Nixon – MAA MrSS AcuDip.

Cathy Nixon’s interest in the healing arts began at the age of nine through the study of martial arts, including Wing Chun Kung Fu, Qigong and Tai Chi. These early experiences fostered a lasting interest in movement, body awareness and the relationship between physical and emotional wellbeing, eventually leading her to pursue a career in holistic therapies.
 

Cathy began her Shiatsu training at Shiatsu College Hastings in 2014, graduating in 2017. Her practice is informed by the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and she remains committed to ongoing professional development, continually deepening her knowledge and skills to support her clients’ individual needs.

In 2020, Cathy established Nixon Wellness & Acupuncture in Rugby, Warwickshire, creating a calm and welcoming space where clients can experience personalised treatments that draw on traditional healing practices and contemporary therapeutic approaches.

Cathy offers a range of complementary therapies, with Shiatsu at the heart of her holistic approach.

• Shiatsu – A traditional Japanese bodywork therapy that uses mindful, focused touch, gentle pressure and stretches to support relaxation, body awareness and overall wellbeing.
• Acupuncture – Having completed her Clinical Acupuncture training in 2024, Cathy offers tailored treatments including Electro-Acupuncture, Fertility Acupuncture and Battlefield. She has also undertaken training in Battlefield Acupuncture and NADA protocols with Total Therapy.
• Tai Chi & Qigong – A certified instructor since 2020 at level 1 and 2, Cathy leads weekly group classes at Wellbeing Warehouse Rugby. Her classes provide an opportunity to explore mindful movement, breathing and relaxation.
